MARVELOUS FACTS. DISPLACEMENT OF HANI) IjABOR BY MACHINERY. Wonderful Results Tliat Have Been Attained in Various Fields of Work Comparisons With Europe. The aggregate energy in hand, horse and steam power in the United States, exclusive of water, with 47,000 miles of navigable rivers more than there are in the whole of Europe, is 89,854,000,000 foot tons daily, n, gainst 83,290,000,000 foot tons in England and France to gether. The horse power of steam used in the United States on railways, steamers and in factories and mines was, in 1888,12,- 100,000, against 1,610,000 in 1850. The United States census of 1890 will probably show a population of about 66,- 000,000, with an aggregate energy of nearly 100.000 millions of foot tons daily and an accumulated wealth cf 70,000 dollars, figures never before applicable to any nation in the world. Comparing with population, the earnings in 1880 per capita averaged $165 against $lO5 in 1850. The earnings in the United States in thirty years were* $149,500,000,000 and the accumulation of wealth has been $37,- 965,000,000, or nearly one-fourth of the earnings, made up of $10,160,000,000 in farms, $4,905,000,000 in railways, $2,- 360,000,000 in factories and $20,520,- 000,000 in houses, etc. The annual ac cumulation of wealth average $1,265,- 000,000, or about fifty per cent, over the accumulations of either Great Britain or France. The inventive genius of the country has devised labor-saving machinery for the advancement of agricultuie, manu factures, commerce and mining, to which very much of the credit for the country's wonderful progress is due. In the race for advancement machinery has displaced labor to re-employ it in the manufacture of labor-saving machines and new meth ods of working. The cost of manufacture of most articles has been diminished and sold to consumers at a diminished price, the laborer reaping a benefit as a con sumer. The rate of wages has been generally advanced, but the wage-earner has not received, as a general rule, the pro rata advance to correspond to the diminished cost of manufacture. Cotton being taken as the standard commodity, the ratio of cost per pound of common cotton cloth in 1828 and 18S0 was as 6.79 to 3.31, and wages for the same dates being as 2.62 to 4.84. The per capita domestic consumption of cot ton in 1831 was 5.90 pounds against 13.91 pounds in 18S0. The working time has been reduced 12 per cent. In the manufacture of agricultural im plements 600 operatives with machinery, j including eighteen classes of wage earn- I ers, do the work of 2145 wage earners ' without machinery, displacing 1545 workers. In manufacturing gun stocks one man by manual labor was able to turn and fit one gun stock in one day of ten hours, while three men now by a division of labor and the use of machinery can turn and fit 125 to 150 gun stocks in ten hours. This displaces the work of forty four to forty-nine wage workers. In the manufacture of brick, improved devices save one-tenth of the labor, and in the manufacturing of fire brick forty per cent, of the manual labor is dis placed. In the manufacture of boots and shoes, the work of 500 operatives is now done by 100, a displacement of wage earners of eighty per cent, by aid of machinery. In another class of boots for women's wear, one worker by manual labor could make six pairs per week, which has by •lid of late devices been increased to eigh teen pairs per week, a displacement of sixty-six per cent, of laborers. In a certain grade of goods the work of 120 wage workers by old methods is now done by the aid of machinery by sixty wage workers' work, better in fact and in appearance, displacing fifty per cent, of wage workers. Goodyear's sewing machine for turned shoes, with one worker, can sew 250 pairs in a day. It would require eight hand-workers to do a like number, a dis placement of per cent, of workers. King's heel shaver or trimmer, with one worker, will turn out 300 pairs of shoes per day, where formerly three men were required. One worker with McKay's machine can handle 300 pairs of shoes per day, and without the machine only five pairs. In nailing on shoe htele one worker and a boy with machinery can heel 300 pairs of shoes per day. It would re .luire five workers to do the same by hand. The introduction of machinery m the manufacture of children's shoes in the last thirty years has displaced six times the manual labor now required, and the product of manufacture has been reduced fifty per cent, to the; consumer. On a of goods manufactured in Maine one man can now by the improved I devices do the work of ten men twenty I years ago. In the broom manufacture, with machinery, half the number of wage workers turn out more work than twice the product. In the manufacture of carriages it used to take one man thirty-five days to make a carriage. It is now made by the aid of machinery with the work of one man in twelve days. A carpet measuring and brushing ma chine with one operator will do the work of fifteen men by the old methods. In cutting out clothing and cloth caps with dies one worker does the work of three by old methods. In the cotton mills in this country the manual labor has been reduced about 50 percent. Now one weaver manages from two to ten looms, where one loom was formerly tended by one worker. In spinning in the cotton mills in this country one operative cared for twenty live spindles that now attends seventy two spindles—an increase of 185 per cent In the olden time in this country one weave? with a hand loom turned out weekly from forty-two to forty-eight yr.rds. A weaver now tending six power looms turns out 1500 yards in a week. In the mauufacture of flour modern im provements save 75 per cent, of the manual labor that once was necessary. In the manufacture of furniture only about one-half the operatives are required to do the same work. In leather manufacture, modern meth ods have reduced the necessary numbci of workers from five to fifty per cent. In stave dressing, twelve colaborers, with a Barker machine, can dress 12,000 I staves in the same time that the same i number of workers by hand could dress j 2500 staves. In making tin cans, one man and a boy with modern appliances, can do the j work of ten workers by the old process. | In making bread boxes three men can do the work of thirteen box makers by the old methods One boy by machinery, in turning wood work and materials for musical in struments, performs the work of twenty- , five men by the old methods. By the use of coal mining machines 160 j miners in a month can mine as much coal in the same time as 500 miners by the old methods. In the manufacture of wall paper one worker by the aid of machinery, does the work of 100 workers by manual labor, and in cutting and drying paper by ma chinery four men and six girls do the work of 100 operators by old methods. In the whole country an army of work ers have been displaced by machinery, j while a large contingent of operators has j been placed in the manufacture of labor- j saving appliances. Improved processes j of manufacture and competition make everything made cheaper to the con- | sumer. In 1880 there were in the United States i 2,733,000 operatives engaged in manu- j faeture, representing and supporting 13,- I 065,000 consumers, or one-quarter of the ' population then, with $5,585,000,000 . product,or an average of $2045 per hand, j with $990,000,000 wages paid operatives. The product of the census for 1890 will probably reach between $8,000,000,000 and $9,000,000,000, with a very large increase in operatives representing and supporting an army of consumers of everything produced in the country. Every week there are chronicled numer ous new manufacturing enterprises giv ing place to large numbers of workers. The most notable are the organizations at Pittsburg and Chicago for the manu facture of tin and terne plates, for which we have paid Great Britain $244,000,000 : in the last fifteen years, and a ten-million iron plant.— New York Graphic. The Royal Prussian Torch Dance. The fackeltanz, or torch dance, is a dance performed at the Royal Court of Prussia whenever a member of the royal family celebrates a wedding. In is per formed in the following manner: Under i the precedence of the upper seneschal I the Privy Counselors and Ministers ap j pointed (who are going two by two), bearing white wax torches, the newly married couple is going around the room first; then the bride is making this round with the King and the Princes success ively; and finally the groom with the Queen and Princesses successively under the same precedence. After this per formance the garter of the bride is dis tributed by the upper seneschal. The last fackeltanz took place recently at the wedding of Prince Frederic Leo pold, of Prussia, son of the well-known Field Marshal, Prince Frederic Charles, with the Princess of Schleswig-Holstein, younger sister of the Empress of Ger many. Hot Typ33. A new French invention, the thermo graphic press, is made for printing on wood by means of hot type. As neat an I impression is claimed as is obtained in ' lithography, and by Ihe use of a specially prepared ink it is said that cold type may be used with equally good effect. Its speed is 400 impressions an hour on flat wood.— American Analyst. German Newspapers. When an American reads at breakfast his well-printed and entertaining news paper, lie enjoys a, pleasure unknown to » German. The difference between the two kinds is great, and the German thinks he profits by the comparison. The first thing you notice in picking up Dne of the larger dailies printed in Berlin jr Munchcn is the wretched paper, and the ink so thickly laid on that it will rub all on your hand. You soon perceive that the news is almost entirely domestic —casualties aud unusual events in the niriouß divisions of the Empire. This, af course, is good so far as it goes, but intelligence of outside affairs is very briefly given, and those points only <vhich are of direct importance to the German fatherland. The smallest movements of nobility ire chronicled with great fidelity. Almost any day you may read such notices as: "Princci So-and-So left the Central Station at 10:30 A.M. by special train, reaching Stuttgart at 12:01 and leaving j at 12:04;" or, "Duke Leopold passed through this city to-day at 2:59 P.M." Whenever any high member of aristoc racy goes hunting, the number of pieces of game taken ia catalogued with scrup ulous accuracy, or if he visits the head of a neighboring principality, the number of days away are duly noted, and the para graph concludes generally with the re mark: "There is no political signifi cance to this visit;" or, "It has great political significance." In printed personal items one's title is always written in full, and every one has an appendage of some kind or other, such as "Doctor of Philosophy Schmidt" or "Professor Doctor Meyer." The title of professor is of great dignity because it is conferred by the government. Other titles of less distinction are minutely given, such as "High Royal Department Servant" and "Master Saddle Maker." The ladies, too, have their positions in life sharply defined. A professor's wife is "Gnadige Frau," the daughter always "Gnadige Frank-in,'' and others as "Frau Architect Brown," "Frau Librarian Jens." Am jug death notices one inay see after the name the station of the de ceased, as, "Frau Schalk, born Jonesh, formerly wife of the Doorkeeper of his Excellency Count Somebody;" "Frau Ehr, born Gill, wife of a private soldier, formerly a master butcher's widow. In mentioning public officeholders the military rank stands first. There is a certain dignitary iu one of the German kingdoms whose title reads: "Honor able Second Lieutenant, Minister of Fi nance." Some of tho old hereditary princes would take up a number of lines in simply stating all their real or claimed titles. From the many insertions of rooms "wanted" and"to let," one would think that half the city was searching for rooms aud the other half trying to rent them. In such an art center as Munchcn, models of different ages are advertised for, al though there is a rather large supply of those who make posing a profession. All sorts of wants are expressed in these col umns. "A poor Protestant widow asks for cast-off clothing;" and one wondors that the following advertiser should lack a position. The "ad" appeared a while j ago, and read something after this fashion: | "A gentleman in reduced circumstances I will give instructions in Italian, Spanish, \ Freucli, Latin and Greek, music, painting and sculpture." Another was worded thus: "Gentlemen desiring to purchase old manorial estates with castles, forests and j preserves, address X." Men wishing wives and women look i ing for husbands, express their wants fre quently also in tlie newspapers, modestly concealing their names. Not only are personal attractions solicited, but the small matter of a certain amount of ma terial prosperity is asked in addition. Death notices, with their deep black • borders, sometimes cover a third of a page. They inform the friends and ac- I ijuaintances of the sad event, and the | name of the deceased is preceded by the j appellations of his various relationships, j thus: "Our deeply beloved husband, son, J brother, stepson, brother-in-law, uncle and cousin, Ilcrr Ernst, master saddler." Several days later will appear in the paper a public expression of thanks to those who were so kind as to manifest their sympathy in t.be recent sorrow. These announcements arc all beautifully worded, and testify to the bereaved per son's resignation to and confidence in Divine Providence. Another point that, is to be noticed in many papers is the report, in a supple ment, perhaps, of the winning numbers in the great lotteries. It is a blemish on Germau national life that this vast system of gambling is not only tolerated, but certainly supported, if the number of these money-making schemes is any indi cation. They are formed for a thousand and one different purposes. One re cently held was for the benefit of the cathedral at Cologne.— Mail and Exjiress. It has been decided in Russia that I women may be physicians; but they must ! confine their services to children and adults of their own sex. Dr. Charcot's Oncer Patient. A Paris correspondent of the Courrier des Stats- Unit notes that hanlly has the intelligence of the discovery of the elixir of life by Dr. Brown-Sequard ceased to startle the French capital before Dr. Charcot, "the man among us who is most habituated to the marvelous," draws the attention of the scientific world to a femme-chat, or cat-woman whom he has discovered. Dr. Charcot's Temme-chat is an Inmate of the hospital of Salpetriere, as the story goes. She-is a pretty child, about four teen years old, with blue eyes and long, blond hair falling down her back. She is modest and gentle up to a certain mo ment, when the visitor suddenly beholds her eyes, "frightfully convulsed," her mouth shrivels up, a horrible grimace distorts her features and she drops to the earth on all fours. Then she scampers about the room over and under chairs and tables, seeking everywhere an outlet of escape, and, if anybody attempts to capture her, she spits with the unmistak able pift, pfft, of an enraged pus*. She humps her back and gives vent to longs miaulments in crescendo, and if a bit of paper or other trifle be thrown to her, she stretches forth a paw or a hand, as the case may be, and plays with it as a cat will. Finally, after having done the entire pus business to admiration, she curls over on her back, the crisis is over, and the fcmme-chat becomes pure fcrame once more.— * New York Commercial Adver tiser. "Put All an der Living Cliance." He was only a stable boy, as hardened and unholy as they make them, yet he was an immense favorite with patron and proprietor alike at the Monmouth track, and especially with his fellows of the Morris stables. Recently stricken with a very grievous disease, his phy sician told him that medicine aud science could do nothing more for him. While quickly realizing that he was fast covering the homestretch of life, with the death wire, as it were, plainly visible, the ruling passion in the confiding and always courageous youth thus betrayed itself: "What's my chances, Doc?" "Not worth mentioning, my boy." J "One in twenty, yon s'posei" "Oh, no." "In thirty?" "No." "Fifty, then?" "I think not." "A hundred?" "W-well, perhaps there might be one in a hundred 1" "I say, then, Doc," pulling thciincdi cine man close down to him and whisper ing with feeble earnestness in his ear, just you go in, do yer best, and put every thing on der one living chance."— Neva York Sun.

He said that thut that that man said was not that that that one should say; but that that that that man said, was that that that man should not say. That reminds us of the following says and saids: Mr. 8., did you say, or did you not say, what I said? because (!. said you said" you never did say what I said you said. Now, if you did say that you did not say what I said you said, then what did you say?— Chicago America. Origin of Washington's Sobriquet. The appellation "The City of Mag nificent Distances," as applied to Wash ington, is said to have come from John Randolph. In an cany day, when the department buildings, Capitol and White House, widely separated, constituted even more than now the chief points of attraction and business, Randolph re marked that it was "a city of splendid poverty and magnificent distances." The yield of gold in Queensland dur ing the past half year amounted to 390,- 000 ounces. This is an increase of 166,- 000 ounces over the preceding half year.
